You know what happens when you had a long emotional day, but then you have to fly to Kansas City to give a presentation the next day? And you get in late and are tired beyond tired but you can't sleep, and so you watch a movie (the King's Speech - most excellent)?

And you toss and turn and get up after two hours of "sleep" to go work out, and find some kind of weird tropical atrium right outside the workout room, but you have a great workout anyway? Want to know what happens?

Paul Ryan for President. Maybe. "If we choose to have a federal government that tries to solve every problem, then as long as society keeps growing more complex, government must keep on growing right along with it.

The electronic Rolls Royce, it's amazing. "The first electric Rolls-Royce is big. It is smooth. It is mind-bogglingly luxurious. And the torque just keeps coming.

Yes.

Loving this: The next Napster? Copyright questions as 3D printing comes of age. Ah yes, what happens when atoms can be encoded as bits? It means physical objects become information, and as we all know information wants to be free, or at least easy. When do you suppose we'll be able to buy [the instructions to print] a chair on iTunes?

The new LinkedIn platform: the professional web. Facebook -like features for LinkedIn, including the ability to "Recommend" items online and sign-on via LinkedIn's authentication system. This could be important. I started to add a LinkedIn "Recommend" button to my blog, but then I realized 'hey this is my personal blog'. But perhaps I will do so on The Daily Scan?
